New Wardour Castle, Palladian country house in Tisbury, England.
The New Wardour Castle features symmetrical wings, neoclassical design elements, and a central staircase hall spread across multiple floors.
James Paine completed this Grade I listed building in 1776 to replace the original Wardour Castle, which sustained damage during the English Civil War.
The castle's architecture represents the 18th-century British movement toward Palladian design, incorporating classical proportions and balanced structural elements.
Visitors can explore the landscaped grounds, walking trails, and picnic areas while learning about the castle's history through guided tours.
The castle grounds include a grotto constructed in 1792 using stones from the old castle ruins, featuring three standing stones.
